    Hi there!

    You are not alone, I have the exact same issue.

    Un-installing and re-installing doesn't fix it.

    Box edit seems to work, so for now I use the web interface unfortunately.

    Are you talking whole machine or just finder?  I just updated to last week's Big Sur patch 11.3 and Finder is now on its third infinite hang in about as many days, while I was trying to delete a file in Box Drive.  Force killing it doesn't revive it or the machine; I have to shut all my apps down and reboot.  Fortunately I can at least do that, vs a complete hang and loss of data.  Between this and the M1 debacle, my confidence in Box as an enterprise app vendor is seriously waning.

    My machine randomly freezes as well.  Once it freezes, even force quitting everything does nothing. It has to be rebooted.  Box, please fix this.
